[QUOTE="Fitzy, post: 3315836, member: 9881"] Obviously when we say players from other sports really the only option would be Union and very unlikely a AFL player or NFL (so unrealistic I know but only other code that suits). From Union I can’t see to many people overseas leaving as the earning capacity seems to be higher in European rugby countries than the NRL. Therefore the only options would be coming out of Australian, New Zealand and possibly South African Rugby. Union to League is a weird one because really only outside backs and back rowers in union can translate to league just by how players play and how they are built. Just running off a few names: [B]Australia[/B] Jordan Petaia Fraser Mcreight Suliasi Vunivalu Isi Naisarani (possibly) Jack Dempsey (right sort of build) [B]New Zealand[/B] Jordie Barrett Caleb Clarke Sevu Reece Rieko Ioane Damien McKenzie David Havili Richie Mo’unga (possibly the only 10 (union) in the world I reckon could make the crossover) Akira Ionae Ardie Savea Dalton Papalii TJ Perenara Aaron Smith (his passing is so so so so good) [B]South Africa[/B] Cheslin Kolbe Faf De Klerk Siya Kolisi Willie Le Roux Makazole Mapimpi there’s some others in other countries like Taulagi, Tom Curry, Anthony Watson, Semi Radradra as you mentioned. I don’t know about AFL enough other than the Lions of who could but I think that’s a no go zone. NFL it’s not like we could afford them but if some of there players has the physicality without the pads and helmets they’d be weapons in our game. [/QUOTE]
